We are a state, co-educational and multi-denominational school. All our students are given the opportunity to engage with the curriculum and school life.
‘Dungarvan College aims to be a centre of excellence in education where all students are encouraged to achieve their full potential in all aspects of their educational and personal development in an environment of care and mutual respect.’
Our mission statement is underpinned by the core values of WWETB. The core values of excellence in education, care, respect, community and equality are at the heart of every policy and action as in Dungarvan College.
School of Sanctuary
Dungarvan College is a Member School of Sanctuary. This means we strive to make our school as safe, welcoming and inclusive as possible for all students and their families. By adopting the three Sanctuary Principles, LEARN/ACTION/ SHARE, we are becoming an ever more inclusive and empathetic place of intercultural learning and practice. We are learning to understand and respond to the challenges and needs of those who seek sanctuary in our school, our community, in Ireland and in the wider world. We celebrate and welcome diversity in all its wonderful forms and colours and we are proud to act as a beacon of sanctuary and kindness in our community.
We have an active student and staff School of Sanctuary team who are enjoying planning events and activities as part of our School of Sanctuary journey.
